I finally broke 400 rwhp. And I scorched the floor of the priciest shop in HR!

Oh and by the way, I'll rant again...no offense to Dave (SSSupra) because he's an awesome dude and would never say he would intentionally fuck people over...but the owner of VA Speed always seems to be on the rude side to people, at least when it comes to his dyno or money. We all paid $30 for a SINGLE pull (most expensive dyno event I have EVER heard of) and though they measured A/F ratio, noone could tell me what mine was (I know it was rich as shit, but how rich was it?), and my disk I took home had SHIT for info on it. It was a HP curve on a MPH axis...no RPM (consequently no torque curve!) HORSESHIT people...I'm sorry, it's a pretty shop and all and hopefully they produce some nice cars out of there...but the dyno prices are just outrageous as hell.

I'll post my "dyno graph" momentarily.

 

THE CRAZINESS HAPPENING AT THE END WAS A NASTY ASS MISS THE CAR DEVELOPED...FOULED PLUGS OWNED ME!

 

Yeah, Dave is a cool dude. He had a surprised look on his face when we told him that the dyno time was advertised for $20 so Im sure he didnt know. BTW, change yer plugs dude!

 

Haha...I know I know...

PS- check SupraForums for my FS thread.

 

Haha, you didn't scorch the floors as much as Bobby did. They had to break out that orange cleaner.

 

HAHA!! Bobby didn't scorch the floors, he fucking doushced (sp?) them with oil! I feel so bad for that Z now.

 

If you were pretty rich then more than likely you are just off the charts. I know that sock, the EVO's start running rich off the carts after about 5k rpm's or so.

I have never heard of a dyno day with one pull only. It takes like what another minute to do another run?

Do they have a DynoJet? It's wierd because you can download the viewer software from the DynoJet site so you can overlay your own graphs from different sessions etc., but I have never been to a facility that could put the stuff on a floppy, so I could take it home. This includes abacus, granted it was only a few months after they bought the thing, and Altered Atmosphere. I guess either people think it is a hassle and just say they don't know how, or DynoJet doesn't do shit for post sales training.

 

I know it was off the charts, but only because I am good like that, not because they TOLD ME...which is my point. I paid $30 for a $10 pull.

 

Merf, on the bottom and both sides of the graph where it says hp, mph etc..
CLICK ON IT, you can change it to show A/F, torque, hp, time. you can setup 3 different graphs on one screen, blah blah blah. You just need to put the pipe down when using the software.

 

Oh btw, the holeshot dyno shootout was also $30 a pull. I have never called around to get prices for dyno time, but I can say that V.S. is reasonable and most importantly flexible. I was sold on this shop when they let me come in and tune my car with no notice, I'm talking 30 pulls late in the afternoon. They even stayed late for me. As far as someone being rude I have not seen that and I would hope that's not true.
